JULY & AUGUST 2019 DEPARTMENT OF SENIOR & DISABLED SERVICES Hunterdon Hills Presents… Music in the Park Barefoot in the Park This Tony Award winning comedy is directed by film and television star Clarence Gilyard (Die Hard, Top Gun, Matlock and Walker, Texas Ranger) and features NSF founder Richard Bugg as Velasco. In "Barefoot In The Park," Neil Simon manages to take the silly squabbles of a young married couple and make them absolutely hilarious! Corie, the young bride, sees their tiny new apartment as cozy and romantic. Paul, the groom, only Spring Lake Park Gazebo see five flights of stairs, a gaping hole in the skylight, and heat that doesn't work. Add oddball neighbor, Victor Maple Avenue, South Plainfield, NJ Velasco, and Corie's well-meaning mother into the mix, Sunday evenings, 6 to 7:30 pm and it's a recipe for non-marital bliss!
